Hábrók

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Norse mythology, Hábrók is a name mentioned in Grímnismál, and quoted by Snorri in Gylfaginning, as the "best of hawks" in a list containing various other names which represent the best of things. However, nothing more is known of this creature. The name is translated as "High Pants" which may refer to the bird's long legs.
